Nov 02, 2016 — I started out from Cades Cove and ascended the Anthony Creek Trail, then took the Bote Mountain Trail up to the Appalachian Trail, which marks the border of the Tenneesee and North Carolina border. I headed east, passing Rocky Top and onward to Thunderhead Mountain. From Thunderhead Mountain's summit I headed back west, crossed Spence Field, and continued until the junction with the Russell Field Trail. I took this trail north, descending back to the Anthony Creek Trail, completing the loop.
Please consider helping me out if you find my site useful. I'm not sponsored, so all site fees are out-of-pocket and my time preparing these trip reports is unpaid. You can also hire me as a web developer. I really appreciate it!
If you find my site helpful, please help me replace my many broken cameras, fund my website fees (hosting, APIs, security), or just support my countless hours of work. I pay for all expenses myself, and all trip reports I post are unpaid and unsponsored, so any support is really appreciated!
If using PayPal, please select their option for "Sending to a friend" so they don't take out fees, thank you.
My site is free to use, but consider sending me a few bucks to help keep it running. Thanks in advance!
